"Yeah," Quen agreed about Drake. "He was probably the one who most had cause to be mad at me, and it seemed like he was the only one who wasn't." The docks had been the first time Quen had met Drake, but the more she learned of the monk, the more she liked him. She was quite looking forward to being in a party with him again, as soon as she could control her magic better.
"Everyone says they got into scrapes when they were younger, too," Quen mused, "but they had very little patience for me the one time I did something irresponsible." Perhaps it was only because they loved her, but it hadn't felt like love at the time. "I did learn from it, though. And as soon as I pass my test, I'm going to join all of the battles I can." Hopefully there would still be some left for her when she got to that point.
